Juxtapoz Magazine – I Don’t Know The Place, But I Know How To Get There: Friedrich Kunath in Los Angeles

The point that in lieu of a press launch, the painter and installation artist Friedrich Kunath presented a poem is apt. For his solo display, I Don’t Know The Put, But I Know How To Get There, on watch at Blum & Poe in Los Angeles, it feels like a conversation with time, some thing that is equally organic and definitely artifical and construted. Just about every get the job done pits the forest and the sky with male, regardless of whether bodily or technological, and still there is a little something that feels at peace and at war. Possibly it can be a tongue and cheek way of declaring we are all on a route to someplace, or possibly its just the collective reality. —Evan Pricco

“Abendlied” by Hanns Dieter Hüsch Butterfly is coming house
Minimal bear is coming dwelling
Kangaroo is coming residence
The lights aglow, the working day is finished.

Codfish is swimming house
Elephant is going for walks property
Ant is racing house
The lights aglow, the working day is completed.

Fox and goose are coming property
Cat and mouse are coming household
Guy and female are coming household
The lights aglow, the day is completed.

All is asleep and all is awake,
All is in tears and all is laughter,
All is silence and all is chatter,
And sadly, we’ll under no circumstances know it all.
All is screaming and all is listening,
All is dreaming and then in everyday living,
All will be changed yet again a person day. 

Presently the evening sits atop our property,
Butterfly is traveling household
Wild horse is bolting house
Older boy or girl is coming household

The lights aglow, the working day is finished.
